Reading Time: 5 minutes Howdy fellow Frugal Samuraites! Hope we all had a cracking weekend – the sun is out and looks like the worst of Winter is passing through FINALLY! It’s beeeeautiful! Did you head outdoors to enjoy the warmth and sunshine? I did… well kinda – I mean, I did head into the city, walked by our very own Darling Harbour… to attend…”cue drum roll” A real estate seminar! The thing with property seminars, for those who have never been – is that usually they try and sell you something there and then. It’s either a “training” course, or an “exclusive” new insight or some other unique and wonderful…

Reading Time: 4 minutes Hola! How’s it going ladies and gentlemen? Are we all enjoying our Wednesday night! I know, I know – there’s not too much to do on a Wednesday right. Seems like hump day is just a prelude to “getting it over with” and waiting for TGIF. But you know, there’s so much more to what can be achieved each passing day. Never underestimate the power of compound interest and incremental changes! Here, take this example I was discussing with my work colleagues today. Now, a bit of background – we work in financial services within a fairly large institution. One might even call it a “bank”,…

Reading Time: 5 minutes What’s up guys – how y’all doing? Hope everyone’s having a great weekend! The days are slowly getting longer which means we’re coming through the back end of winter, as we limp forward through the second half of 2018. How’s your year coming along? Hopefully it’s been productive and fruitful so far. If not – don’t fret, still some time left to get cracking! Sometimes though, I have this feeling that I’m spinning wheels for the sake of spinning them as opposed to actually gaining any ground. Know what I mean? These days, there’s a seeming badge of honour to boast as to how “busy” we…

Reading Time: 5 minutes “Hey, can you lend me twenty bucks?” I stopped in my tracks and surveyed the scene in front of me. A young man, dressed sharply in a suit and tie held out his hand with an air of confidence. A myriad of thoughts permeated through my mind. Did I know this person? Why is he asking me for money? Will I get it back? Hm, I hope they still have those tasty Schnitzel sandwiches left. Where is the nearest toilet by the way, might make a pit-stop. Turning back to the young man, I reached into my wallet and handed over some of my hard-earned… You…

Reading Time: 3 minutes Last night whilst watching the 3rd/4th playoff of the World Cup – I found myself in an inadvertent quasi high-school reunion. There were 7 of us and more than half of the group I have not caught up with in years. What a pleasant surprise to see such old faces, all grown up! They say people change, but yknow honestly – I don’t think we’ve changed much, if at all – deep down, the same pimply, scrawny and adolescent schoolboys jostling each other, trying to one-up and cheer each other on. Boys will be boys. You know, it’s funny when you look back and remember your…
